Who's to say I couldn't pass him with my Schwinn?

Had a Prelude with over 200,000. This one has 50,000. Had a Taures SHO with 180,000. The car is still going strong. It has the Yamaha V-6 in it.

I bet you wish you still had that SHO! They made a couple Ford Festiva ShoGun's stuffed that nice Yammmie engine in the back, fast little MoFo's

Yes my cousin bought it from us. It had some power. I just got tired of working on it. 1st thing I had to change the fuel pump took about a week to pull the tank. The the exhaust. That wasn't fun either. Then the AC drain clogged and no one could find it. Plus to change the heater to AC I had to put a 30 amp in it move the selector and turn the car on. LOL The 30 amp lasted about 2 seconds. There was a short. I tore that dash apart so many times to ring out the wires. I could never find it. I paid 800.00 for it from the auto shop at the tech school. Leather seats all electric every thing. Nice car.

Dude I feel so much better. It isn't funny. When you can't remember days. Something is wrong. I have ran out of these before. I should have known; but by the time I started it was to late. I wasn't remembering squat. I'm going to change vacuum pumps today. To the Robinson Aire one and see if I get enough vacuum to start loading. The canadians ripped me off. Big time. Jerks.

So, by comparing the two loaders is it obvious the first one COULD NOT have loaded a tape before transit???

Let's see:
There are 230 hours on the Kubota tractor so that would equate to about (230 x 40) 9200 miles. That is using the conversion factor we use to use when I worked for Thermo King.

Ahhh, if it's autos you speak about 50K on the Honda Ridgeline. Most autos get driven until they totally fall apart so hopefully this one has a ways to go.

TGIF.....

I don't know but I've been on the road myself since 1966. I have no odometer, just crap to toss out in a BS session.

I've never owned a new car either and the highest odometer reading I encounter before selling or junking a car was my 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Deluxe sedan, 235 cid inline "Turbothrift" six. I heard from people it was still running around at least three years later.

Bought it at 68,000 miles at 26 years and it had not had new shocks EVER (I had all the paperwork)! Traded it at somewhere well over 150,000 and think it made it to 170,000 if they drove half as excessively as I did.

It was easy to repair myself in the largest part-points, plugs, oil, filters, lighting...no power. I had excellent faux "racing" rims, faded greenish paint. Had a girlfriend, could've used a dog. The way I darted around I was lucky to get 20 mpg much less 25!

I used to drive 30+ miles a day in a small town of 9,000...not counting trips to my folks and Boise. I changed the oil at 3000 milles most of the time and that came up QUICKLY.

The pizza girl in the Subaru Justy who won the holeshot at the end of the main drag was a little chagrinning though

Can't beat that. My Caddy has about 64,000 miles and the dog car Chevy has 118,000 or so.

Update the Caddie now has 67,000 miles and the Chevy Dog Car has 136,000 on it. Don't put many miles o nthe Caddie anymore as it is less than 4 miles round trip to work each day.
